Glory to God

 In the quiet of night they waited
 For the breaking of the day
 The long night was cold and lonely
 As they tended the sheep in their care
  
 The stars were brilliant above them
 A cloudless sky gave them a view
 The campfire was warming their bodies
 As the mist settled down as a dew
  
 Then suddenly up in the heavens
 A bright light appeared to their sight
 And the form of an angel was seen next
 The shepherds leaned back in their fright
  
 Glory to God, glory to God
 Glory to God in the Highest
 Peace and good will, peace and good will
 Peace and good will to man
  
 “Do not be afraid” said the angel
 “I come to bring news of good cheer”
 For a child is born in a manger.
 Bringing great joy to all who will hear”
  
 You will find the babe laid in a manger
 With swaddling clothes keeping him warm
 Go to Bethlehem and greet the Savior
 Who will be the Lord of this world”
  
 And suddenly great light was shining
 A great heavenly host filled the air
 Singing “Glory to God in the highest
 Peace on earth and good will to man”
  
 Glory to God, glory to God
 Glory to God in the Highest
 Peace and good will, peace and good will
 Peace and good will to man

The Angels Cry

 I had a dream the other night 
 Of waking in a field
 Twas a chilly night and stars shone bright
 The silence was surreal 
  
 Then I heard a distant noise
 Like bleating from a sheep
 I followed it and heard a voice 
 Saw shepherds shunning sleep
  
 They gathered round a dim lit fire
 To keep their bodies warm
 I asked them if they might be tired
 They said sheep mist be warned
  
 I sat with them this quiet night 
 I felt my dream was done 
 When suddenly an angel choir
 Came shining like the sun
  
 We all stood there in great fright
 Not knowing what to do
 An angel said we should not fear
 Then the angels call rang out
  
 Glory glory to our God
 Glory in the highest
 A child is born in Bethlehem
 A King for all the ages
  
 Glory glory to our God
 Peace on earth forever
 Goodwill comes to everyone 
 Go and see your Savior 
  
 The Angel choir then left our sight
 We quickly went to see
 The baby they pronounced that night
 Christ Jesus Lord is He
  
 Glory glory to our God
 Glory in the highest 
 Christ us born in Bethlehem 
 A King for all the ages

The Glory of the Lamb

The Lamb of God came from above
To show us all the Fathers love
Upon the cross He bled and died
And thus became my sacrifice

Oh what a love is this
That He would give His life
Oh what a love is this
That freedom now is mine

The Lamb of God sits on the throne
From death to life His body rose
The angels praise His worthy name
Jesus my Lord Lamb that was slain

Oh what a love is this
That He would give His life
Oh what a love is this
That freedom now is mine

Heaven and earth declare His glory
Heaven and earth declare His glory
Heaven and earth declare His glory
The glory of His name
The glory of the Lamb

Oh what a love is this
That He would give His life
Oh what a love is this
That freedom now is mine
